Analysis of When the heart speaks



We cannot dissolve the time
We cannot refuse to mind
in a moment
in a moment like this

To cut out the fuse in my-
To shut out the Q's in my-
To drown out the abuse in my-
Mind...
So softly weeping-

I'm just your unconditional
saw in a vision'
sure to change your religion
O' Lover

I made the unintentional
so sensual
undeniably
Suffer

Don't talk, Don't speak
Heart,
To watch,Her sleep
Art,
In my arms we watch'
O' we watch
Time stand still...
